    Why Plasma TVs Are Dying

    I really wanted a plasma TV but I could not find a 1080p plasma that was 40 inches or below. I cannot fit any more then that in the space I have. If someone was selling a 38 inch plasma at even double the price of a 38 LCD I would buy it in a heartbeat.

    ‘Final Fantasy VII’ Characters 3D Printed Straight from the Game

    Oh I think it was an interesting piece of game design and set the stage for things to come. 2D to 3D was always the big problem of the day. To me though, as a game I do not find it engaging, both when it came out or when it gets booted up now. I don't think that it was everyone's first RPG (I...

    ‘Final Fantasy VII’ Characters 3D Printed Straight from the Game

    Good work with extracting and preparing the old models for printing. I am surprised he did it himself and didn't just got to some of the many websites that posts video game 3D models. On a side note.... I still cannot get into FFVII... after FF6 (FF3 in the states) I didn't really enjoy a Final...

    PS Vita Now Outselling Wii U in Japan

    First of all I think this writer is failing to mention a little game called Monster Hunter that is just HUGE in Japan and is one of the sole reasons the PSP was such a success there, and that games are still being made for it.

    3D-printed Gun CAD Files Pulled from Web

    You know I am not saying that someone would have not done this eventually. But I really feel that this guy is just a big D*ck for putting this out there while 3D printers are still not fully in the public consciousness. Giving the 24/7 news cycle and congress something to panic over, and giving...

    Nintendo CEO Says No E3 Press Conference This Year

    Yeah, as a big Nintendo supporter... I have no idea what they were thinking giving reusing the name "Wii". So many people I talked to, ranging from non techy friends to just people buying stuff in Gamestop or Best Buy, thought it was just an add on (didn't help that it looked like a Wii with...

    Amazon's AutoRip Service Now Includes Vinyl Purchases

    Yeah got an email from them saying I could download the Jimi Hendrix album I bought from them on vinyl. Cool concept, but I would much rather just torrent higher quality files of the albums I already bought for when I need them on the go.

    Another way to rip Dreamcast games is to use some of the new SD card adapters that plug into the Dreamcasts link cable port. They seem to work at 650kb/s. You can find them on ebay.

    What Android Looked Like Right Before the iPhone Launched

    God, I really love the look of this phone... reminds me of my Samsung blackjack that I had for 6 years up until last November... I really miss all of my buttons and the ease of use... and most importantly I miss not having to use a touchscreen. I really wish we had more options for designs of...

    Bleszinski Compares Gaming Industry to Super Smash Bros.

    kinggravesThey don't consider graphics to be a priority. Their priority is making an experience which is fun and allows people to come together. If I want to see a photorealistic Mario I'll go rent a Ron Jeremy film. They also tend to forget the world doesn't revolve around the U.S. Nintendo...

    Wii U Sales Slumping in Japan

    lpedraja2002Wow that's a huge CON right there, I can't believe this isn't announced more. Next you'll tell me that the tablet doesn't even save your game files? So I can't just take it to another WiiU and play with my profile ? The controller is a touch screen, not a tablet. There are no CPU...
